Himeji Race 2 - Race 2 - 1400
LA LA PASSAGE (1) was in contention on the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over this track and trip. Likely improver with strong prospects. YUINO OTOSHIANA (4) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing third and only 1.75 lengths from the winner. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. VARIO (7) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fifth here. Nicely placed to bounce back. FU DAO LE (10) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth. Finds a nice race and can atone.
